RETURN TO VEGA  

2026 / Colour / 35 mm / Fiction / 95 min

Directed by: Serge Garcia
Written by: Serge Garcia & Jacob Sperber 

IN DEVELOPMENT

Synopsis:
In a nocturnal world of fleeting gestures, we meet MIC, a 30 year old transgender man in present day Mexico City. After work, Mic drifts through the undercurrent of a fading cabaret and male-only sex club where the pursuit of intimacy is not an answer, only another question. Driven by the ebb and flow of the quest itself, Mic enters spaces where few words are needed. Leaving nothing but the next encounter.

A GENERAL DISAPPOINTMENT 

NARRATIVE SHORT

Directed by: Serge Garcia
Cinematography: Simon Köcher
Length: 25:00 min
Format: 16mm, 35mm
Year: 2022

Synopsis:
A General Disappointment bends the quotidian with ordinary scenes that are overlaid with stories told through text that wander through a night at a sex club, domestic duties at home, and the existential aftermath after a failed attempt to go on a date. The experience invites us to ponder over the systemic failures inherent to capitalist societies, and how vain their promises of happiness and self-fulfillment are.
